Nokia’s Lumia 720 Windows Phone 8 handset hits the FCC

Last month, when Nokia unveiled the new Lumia 720, it didn’t say if the handset would be released in the US or not. Still, customers will most probably be able to find it there eventually – if not via a carrier, at least through some retailers.

Of course, the 720 must be approved by the FCC first – but that just happened today. The device that passed the FCC’s tests has 850 / 1900 MHz WCDMA connectivity, so it can be used on AT&T’s 3G network. It doesn’t support LTE, though. That’s because, according to what Nokia had previously announced, the 720 has no LTE-capable versions at all.
